Hey, first post here and I just wanted to say thanks, that was a great introduction to metal detecting and this site.
I only read the first couple of responses and I just wanted to say I may be a little bit of a "computer geek with links galore" and as far as I can tell this is a completely original post with original pics. In fact the only other place I can find this information is in a blog posted a couple of months ago which also provides a link to this thread to give proper credit.
